Line 15:

In order to anchor an Engineering Complex you'll need a ship with an appropriately sized cargo hold or fleet hangar, the right roles and a suitable spot to anchor your structure. After that the whole building process, while automatic, takes 24 hours.

== Tethering ==

Tethering allows players with permission to dock in the citadel to remain in space without being targetable, essentially making them invulnerable. While tethered the structure will also repair any damaged modules fitted to your ship and drones currently in your drone bay. While you can move around as long as you stay close to the structure, several actions break the tether as well as stopping you from tethering to begin with.
